You don’t recognize the love of your life?
Indeed, troubling. If the query is on the backdrop, it’s Dragon’s Tirpitz (premium edition, with PE of foil-like thickness)
Looks like a carrier to me…
Not just any carrier, but a certain, say it now…Zuiho!
There’s only the Zuiho by Hasegawa…
Build done commencing painting…


Looking good Potchip. Ever built Soryu?
What is that white zig-zag line on the Zuiho’s deck…Is it a marking, a wind-breaker or a crash barrier??? The Hasegawa kit has it as relief into the deck, leading me to believe it is more than just deck-markings…
The world wonders…

it’s an alchool test before flight for pilots
I love the phony BB guns on the deck. They must me trying to portray a KG V class BB.
Actually I knew that…here is a pic --circa 1944-- that shows my staff checking out the Hasegawa offering…they are studying the instructions in this pic…

That must have been pre October 1944, before the Battle of Leyte Gulf. [whstl]
great start potchip
why don’t start a new post for the zuiho? it’s free [:D]
[dto:] It seems to deserve it’s own thread.

Oh oh. Pinmark on the forward flight deck strut or whatever it’s called. [;)]
How long does it take you to install those PE railings? I know you have to bend them yourself, so it probably takes a lot of trial and error.
Bending PE is just eye-balling it, then bend with the blade edge ![]()
Folding tools are for the AFV try hards.[6] Railings doesn’t take long. If you’ve bent certain AA weapons from a certain manufacturer, (even with a 50% success rate) you can pretty much do any PE in any scale.
More Zuiho


Yep…decal markings are too thick.

Zuiho rocks. Bookmarked and followed! (own thread warrented)
I beileve that Manny had to leave the room to change his drawers after getting this latest update. [:D]
Yes I did…looks like your take on the colours was the same as mine: different shades of grey and black; no greens—

wow…nice
